Soup, a main, a little drink, the everyday way to eat well for very little. Near the plaza in Tarija it runs around Bs 30; you ask the price and let the kitchen decide.
In many Bolivian homes almuerzo is the big meal of the day, eaten together around 12:30: a soup first, then the 'segundo'. Dinner is often lighter.
